So, what can a bunch of friends in their thirties do in Paris? Well, opening a restaurant seems the purpose of many of them! If success is shared by many businesses, Le Square Marcadet, born of this alliance, takes a big part of the cheesecake. To seal friendship and business, the initials of the four buddies (S.E.A.N) appears at the entrance of the place, which when jumbled could give N.A.S.E … this acronym spells a rather unflattering French slang for lousy or broken but know that this place is nothing of that! From the table to the kitchen, through the wine list and decor (special mention to the inlaid sofa, bargain hunters will swoon over!), the team of “Le Square Marcadet” meticulously took care of the outside and the inside.

We go to “le Square Marcadet” for a happy hour cocktail, for the connoisseur selected wines, the menu presented on a slate because it’s renewed every week (or even every day) and the kitchen of a former Passard…

Enjoy Aberdeen Angus flank steak, Iberian pork pluma, mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes (voted best mashed potato ever!) and other fresh market produce on a few high tables in the lobby, very quiet for an intimate dinner, or join the large lounge with ancestral portraits, old books and colorful and friendly atmosphere. A little tight and surrounded by another group of friends who have not yet opened their restaurant, you will willingly pass the salt over to the next table without being annoyed by the hubbub.

But above all, what we would like to keep hushed or write in -11 font because it’s so rare in the district is the huge terrace at the back of the room, heated and open even in winter. This large green open air corner is one of the highlights of this charming bistro without pretensions and oh so warm, all year long!

That little extra: with all the coolness of the place, the Sunday sacrosanct brunch is of course provided! Choose between “British” or “Nordic”, no hunger pang permitted before Monday noon!
